The Islamization of Britain could occur without a single bullet being fired through a combination of reproduction and political maneuvering.

At least, that is what a number of scholars have suggested after surveying demographic trends. While these alarming trends are not a new phenomenon, it is only recently that the magnitude of the problem is being recognized for what it is.

In short, it is becoming widely accepted that if something doesn’t quickly change, the native British population may soon be sidelined to make room for an Islamic majority. Last month the Gatestone Institute expressed widespread concerns when they issued the following warning:

The Muslim population of Britain topped 3.3 million by the end of 2013 to become around 5.2% of the overall population of 63 million, according to figures extrapolated from a recent study on the growth of the Muslim population in Europe. At the same time, opinion surveys consistently show that voters in Britain view Islam and the question of Muslim immigration as a top-ranked public concern. The British public, it seems, is increasingly worried about the establishment of a parallel Muslim society there.

To these disturbing figures we must add the fact that a tenth of under-fives in Britain are Muslims and that the native British population is increasingly aging. The aging British population was the subject of a Lords study last year. Researchers found that if current trends continue unabated then between 2010 and 2030 there will be a 50% rise in the number of over-65s while the number of over-85s will double.

Business and feminism have worked together in a pincer movement to drive women into the work place.

There are a number of reasons for this demographic shift, but the main issue is that the native British population is not having enough children.

The declining birth rate is due to a number of factors. This includes economic policies that have made it increasingly difficult for parents to support children. Despite benefits available to struggling parents, the cumulative effect of the debt-spending required to sustain our welfare state has resulted in a decrease in the purchasing power of the pound. The devaluing of the currency has made it increasingly difficult for parents to support more than a couple children, if even that. Even middle class families are finding it increasingly difficult to bring up their children because of crippling taxation.

Christian Voice has also frequently drawn attention to the many social programs that implicitly discourage marriage. (See our article from last year ‘The Cost of a Permissive Society.’)

Another factor in the declining birth rate has been the contraceptive mentality. This mentality is being promoted by the population control lobby, which often makes potential parents feel guilty for such things as ‘irresponsible breeding.’ (See my article, ‘Baby Freeze: is population control the new solution to global warming?’ and ‘Fourth Child Furore’.)

Another key factor has been the way business and feminism have worked together in a pincer movement to drive women into the work place. As a result, many women are waiting until later in life to have children, only to find that their biological clock has stopped ticking. Only the Muslims are doing what their bodies were designed to do and having lots of children. However, this is creating a situation whereby Britain could be sleep-walking into an Islamic state.

  1.

  2. All this assumes that there is no intermarriage and that the children and grandchildren of Muslims are all Muslims. Moreover, it assumes that Muslim women will continue not to have careers outside the home, and will continue not to use much contraception. Probably none of this is true. After all, Roman Catholic women are not supposed to use contraception, but from the figures quoted for traditionally Roman Catholic countries, either they do, or a majority of women are no longer truly Roman Catholic. One hopes that this is the way it will go with Muslims.

  3. This may not continue, though. It may be just be a sort of “happy-clappy” teenage phase, for the most part. I am reliably informed by a Christian woman with relations in a Middle-Eastern country that there is a lot of mere fashion in the “Muslim” dress worn by many young women. I am amazed that many of them seem to have elaborate hairstyles projecting backwards under their hijab, hairstyles which presumably hardly anybody ever sees. She tells me that this fashionable “look” is artificial, that no reasonable amount of hair would do it (she has a lot of hair herself, so she knows !), and it is produced largely by padding for effect ! I don’t think this is what the Prophet had in mind. Their “modest” dress was never supposed to be eye-catching (though in a Western country it usually is ).

    If the first generation was rather happy-go-lucky in their religious ways , and the second generation rebelled and became more overtly Muslim, the teenage rebellion of the third generation against their parents is just as likely to produce something else.

    With hindsight, one can see how difficult prophecy is. Imagine standing in England in 1910 and trying to predict what 1950 would be like. Imagine standing in England in 1895 and predicting what 1925 would be like. Or predicting 1990 from 1950. I don’t know of anybody getting such things correct.

    If you don’t think hoping is enough, you can of course try praying.
